Grace Jones

Oh nobody does it the way i like this?
Mmmm....where are you from?
Yeah, you really got me now.....
I was at a party, spotted your baby face hair slicked back in place, smile so vivid,
I knew i had to make a move on your pretty feet weak off i've got to think to get you in my limits,
Let me show you how to ease my tension, use your body and soul just how far will i go?
You want an answer to your question,
Do you really want to know? you're out of my reach that's why i want you more.

It's a choice of trick or treat, we'll begin and end on a 7 day weekend,
Are you so blind that you can't see? a kiss will lead you on,
Sex will bring you under i bet you it's all over,
Uh huh, gotta get up gotta get up, send you up send you up,
On a 7 day weekend.

Contradictions get distorted and you know there's no guarantee,
I had to fool with his friend standing in front of him to bring his attention to me,
Let me show you how to ease my tension, use your body and soul just how far will i go?
You want an answer to your question, do you really want to know?
'cause, you're out of my reach that's why i want you more,
It's a choice of trick or treat, we'll begin and end on a 7 day weekend,
Are you so blind that you can't see? a kiss will lead you on,
The sex will bring you under i bet you it's all over.

Love that's beyond the line, losing my dignity
Love without trust, what is it worth, you've got to live your life gracefully!!!

It's a choice of trick or treat, we'll begin and end on a 7 day weekend,
Are you so blind that you can't see? a kiss will lead you on,
The effect will bring you under i bet you it's all over,
It's a choice of trick or treat, we'll begin and end on a 7 day weeken

I've been (?) my life just a rolling stone,
When I needed your love, baby, your'e always gone.

In my life I know that something is missing,
Grains of sand is really all you've been giving.

I need more loving baby, I need more (?kissing?),
Now I want (?) that you got.

They say a rolling stone never gathers no moss,
One day we will slow down and find that love is lost.

In my life I know that something is missing,
Grains of sand is really all you've been giving.

I need more loving baby, I need more (?kissing?),
Now I want (?) that you got,
Now I want (?) that you got.

(?).

Now I want (?) that you got.

In my life I know that something is missing,
Baby, grains of sand is really all you've been giving.

I need more loving baby, I need more (?kissing?),
Now I want (?) that you got,

I'll never write my memoirs,
There's nothing in my book,
The only way you see me an Art Groupie,
I'm hooked.

Some people like to be used,
I've been used and amused,
But that's the way I see me,
My Art Groupie look.

Love me in a picture,
Kiss me in a cast,
Touch me in a sculpture,
Whisper in my mask.

Don't ask me any questions,
My personal life is a bore,
Admire me in glory,
An Art Groupie. That's all.

Love me in a picture,
Kiss me in a cast,
Touch me in a sculpture,
Whisper in my mask.

I'll never write my memoirs,
There's nothing in my book,
The only way you see me an Art Groupie,
I'm hooked.

It's all right if you love me,
It's all right if you don't,
I'm not afraid of you running away honey,
I get the feeling you won't.

There's no sense in pretending,
(?)
Something inside you, is feeling like I do,
We've said all there is the say.

Breakdown, honey go ahead and give it to me,
Breakdown, honey take me tonight,
Breakdown, I'm standin' hear can't you see,
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right.

It's all right if you love me,
It's all right if you don't,
I'm not afraid of you running away honey,
I get the feeling you won't,

It's OK if you must go,
I'll understand if you don't,
You say goodbye right now,
I'll still survive somehow,
Why should we let this drag on?

Breakdown, honey go ahead and give it to me,
Breakdown, honey take me tonight,
Breakdown, I'm standin' hear can't you see,
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right, baby.

Breakdown, honey go ahead and give it to me,
Breakdown, honey take me tonight,
Breakdown, I'm standin' hear can't you see,
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right,

Breakdown, I'm standin' hear can't you see,
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right,

Breakdown. (To End)

You want to shoot me down?

I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart.

Shotgun, hit and run,
You've had your fun and you left me stung,
You took my heart for target practice,
And now I know that love shares no justice,

So i, I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart.

Here is something you ought to know,
You better pack up and you better go now,
Don't mess with me, no playing around,
I'm going to stomp you straight in the. ground

'cause i, I've got a bulletproof heart,


I've got a bulletproof heart.

Oh i, I've got a bulletproof heart,
Oh i, I've got a bulletproof heart.

Finger on the trigger, ready to shoot,
I'm kicking you out, not sharing my loot,
I'm locking all my closets, I'm closing my legs,
No use for you to even stand there and beg.

'cause i, I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart.

'cause i, I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart,
Oh I've got a bulletproof heart,
Oh I've got a bulletproof heart. [laughs....]

And if I wander down the wrong road,
It's alright baby, just let me go,
If I get tired of all those assholes,
It's alright cause' I want them to know.

I'm sick and tired of all this bullshit,
Rough shit, same shit,
Hey Jesus come on down and save us, save us, rave on.

And on the road I ride through Richmond
Rich man, You know the business I'm in
And feeling sorry, makes me feel mad,
Someday, uh baby, I play to win.

I'm sick and tired of all this bullshit,
Rough shit, same shit,
Can't Jesus come on down and save us, save us, rave on.

I'm sick and tired of all this bullshit,
Same shit, wrong shit
Hey Jesus come on down and save us, save us, rave on.

And if I wander down the wrong road,
It's alright honey, just let me go,
If I get tired of all those assholes,
It's alright cause' I want them to know.

I'm sick and tired of all this bullshit,
Rough shit, same shit,
Hey Jesus come on down and save us, save us, rave on.

You stand there, stutter, brains like butter,
You dissed your father, sister, your mother,
Times have tried too hard to your answer to give up instead of live up,
To the stance of a man, understand that I'm a right hand,
Five out of five will die, from crack and on my left the birth the same and the same birth (?),
The kid once did and now his death is echoed around the world for all to hear,
So let's have a merry new year
Yo Grace, school 'em.

They're lost now, taken over, crack attack,
They're lost now, taken over, crack attack,

There's a little boy who lives down the way,
I heard he's crazy from crack in his brain,
He's lost now, he's taken over, crack attack,
Lost now, taken over, crack attack,
Don't do it,cheap high,say no! (echoes).

Though I wonder who is to blame,
All this epidemic is driving me insane, all of it,
I see the kids dying in the streets,
Whoever makes one, they're going lose his way,
Lost know, taken over, crack attack,
They're lost now, taken over, crack attack.

Stuck in the middle, and don't know where to go,
They've got so now, they're living for the blow,
They get it babe, doing it for the thrill,
It's so insane, such danger for a thrill,
Lost now, they're taken over, crack attack,
Don't do it, cheap high, break the tie.

You can turn it over, you can take control,
you want your mind, your body and soul,
Don't you let crack put you in a hole,
You've done without and you can do it now.

Said crack attack, crack attack, crack attack,
Don't do it, say no!, give it up,
Lost now, lost now...lost now, taken over crack attack, crack attack,
Taken over, crack attack, crack attack,
Lost now...give it up, give it up, taken over.

Tied to the tracks and the train's just coming,
Strapped to the wing with the engine running,
You say that this wasn't in your plan,
Don't mess around with the demolition man,

Tied to a chair, and the bomb is ticking,
This situation was not of your picking,
You say that this wasn't in your plan,
Don't mess around with the demolition man,

I'm a walking nightmare, an arsenal of doom,
I kill conversation as I walk into the room,
I'm a three line whip,
I'm the sort of thing they ban,
I'm a walking disaster,
I'm a demolition man,

I'm a walking nightmare, an arsenal of doom,
I kill conversation as I walk into the room,
I'm a three line whip,
I'm the sort of thing they ban,
I'm a walking disaster,
I'm a demolition man,

You come to me like a moth to the flame,
It's love you need but I don't play that game,
You kept on coming you should have ran,
I'm nobody's friend,
I'm a demolition man,

I'm a walking nightmare, an arsenal of doom,
I kill conversation as I walk into the room,
I'm a three line whip,
I'm the sort of thing they ban,
I'm a walking disaster,
I'm a demolition man,
Demolition man...

I've been called an operator,
I can sell an eskimo snow,
Baby, your'e a calculator,
But all you ever tell me is no.


You make me run,run,run, say your havi'n none,
You make me run,run,run, chase me with a gun.
I'll never give up!
I've got to do or die,
I'm reach'in for the sky,
I'd like to make you mine,
You know I will in time,
? Do or Die,
No matter how you try,
You'll never change my mind,
I got to Do or Die!!


Taurus's are more determined,
Nothing's gonna stand in their way,
Loving you was my ambition,
I was born the 19th of May.


You make me run,run,run, say your havi'n none,
You make me run,run,run, chase me with a gun.
I'll never give up!
I've got to do or die,

[LL Cool J]
Word life, I like the way the F went down
Go to sleep, tomorrow I'll take you back downtown

Chorus (repeat 3X)

How long before we see we have broken those chains,
.(?)...just like the bird that sings it in the dream baby we are born free,
Oh now, I wan't you to know now we are in charge of our own destiny,
Freedom is only but a state of mind, you've got to leave them shackles behind.

Don't you cry freedom, exercise your freedom,
Don't cry freedom, exercise your freedom,
Don't cry freedom, it's a state of mind,
Oh..ooooh..cry..don't cry, don't cry...well well, well.

Freedom is only but a state of mind, you've got to leave them shackles behind.
Yeah, Yeah,
Some of us get to dance on a dream,
Every day we pray to that which we cannot see,
Why is it so, so difficult to love that which we see?
Love for you and me.

Tell me now, do you like what you see?
Are those images forced upon us, reflections of you and me,
Don't you let them play upon your mind, you've got to leave them shackles behind.

.(?).I wan't you to know that, we are each other our own destiny,
Just like the bird that sings within the dreams, baby you are born free,
Oh yeah, every night oh now,
Don't you cry freedom, freedom, don't cry, don't cry oh now, freedom,
Don't you cry freedom, exercise your freedom it's a state of.., don't cry Freedom,
just like the bird that sings within the dream baby you are born free.

Nothing comes during a sleep above a dream,
You better wake up and face reality,
You never get ahead just laying around in bed,
What you can see you really can achieve.

Dream means a sleepless fulfillment though I wonder why,
You wake up out of the darkness and let life begin,
Oh dream means a sleepless fulfillment oh I wonder when,
Wake up out of the darkness and let life begin.

Some people are living only on hopes and dreams,
But you've got to wake up to the plans and scenes,
The journey of life is only one step ahead,
But you never get there tossing and turning in bed,
You're facing the world with no plans for tomorrow,
And now you're wondering what's waiting around the bend.

Dream means a sleepless fulfillment unless you try,
Sleepers, they hold on t dreams while the world passes by,
Dream means a sleepless fulfillment (though) unless you try,
Sleepers, they hold on to dreams while the world passes by.

Dream means a sleepless fulfillment though I wonder why,
Sleepers hold on to dreams while the world passes by, one more time,
Dreams a sleepless fulfillment though unless you try,
Sleepers hold on to dreams.....

Don't lay there dead, c'mon boy get up!

Give me that driving satisfaction,
I need your positive reaction,
Hey you, standing in the (door?),
Like you don't know where to go,
(Hey you), ain't got no money to spend,
a dog wouldn't be your friend.

Give me that driving satisfaction,
I need a positive reaction,
Give me that driving satisfaction,
I need a positive reaction.

Hey you, the night is cold,
Hey you, I'm all alone,
I need somebody to hold,
You're right, you're wrong,
You're stuck in the middle of the road,
You're up, you're down way down there below,
You're right, you're wrong,
You're stuck in the middle of the road,
You're up, you're down, way down there below.

Get up boy!
And give me that driving satisfaction,
I need a positive reaction,
Give me that driving satisfaction.

In the middle of the night in a certain kind of heat,
If the odds are against you,
You're facing sure defeat, yeah.

You're life is (greed?), you still can't make a move,
Get up my friend, you've got something to prove,
You're life is (greed?), you're stuck in the middle of the road,
You're up, you're down, way down there below.

Driving satisfaction,
I need a positive reaction, yeah boy,
Give me that driving satisfaction,

Hey you, hey you I'm talking to you,
(Yeah boy), give me what you promised me,
Take me for a ride,
Hey you, I'm talking to you,
Hey you, (I wont hurt you baby),
I'm burning, I'm burning, burning with desire.

Give me that driving satisfaction,
I need a positive reaction, (yeah boy),
(Baby now), looking for your driving satisfaction,
I need your positive reaction,
Give it to me, give it to me now,
I said now, I want it!

When I'm feelin' lonely,
Someone telephone me,
It's gettin' hard to pass my time.

Take me out'a dieing,
Watch me while I'm flyin',
Baby, it's a waste of time.

I need a man, perhaps a man like you,
I need a man, to make my dreams come true.

Say that you will find him,
Creeping up behind him,
Moving round' the town all day.

Well, I'm underestimated,
Highly underated,
Can there be another way?

I need a man, perhaps a man like you,
I need a man, and I need a man.

And then I won't be feelin' lonely,
Knowing I'm the only one.

He'll understand,
Oh, what I'm feelin' deep inside me,
Knowing that at last he's gone.

Oh well,
Gettin' tired of lookin',
Wastin' all my cookin,
Ending in a dreadful row.

Can somebody tell me,
Say to me, or sell me,
Why I'm feelin' lonely, oh.

I need a man, perhaps a man like you,
I need a man to make my dreams,
And I need a man.

And at night I won't be lonely,
Knowing I'm the only one.

He'll understand,
Oh, what I'm feelin' deep inside me,
Knowing that at last he's gone.

It's maybe that I'm dreaming,
Can't say they I've seen him,
Somehow, I just got to find.

Someone outstanding,
Goes without (?),

I was on the first ship to Peru
Charted all the courses like all sailors do
First to cross the Mason-Dixon line
Overseeing wetbacks for good californian wine

And I've done it again, done it again, done it again
And I've done it again, done it again, done it again

I was there when Jenny Lind first sang
First to feel the cold Alaskan white man
First to take a trip on LSD
First to vote for Roosevelt back in '33

And I've done it again, done it again, done it again
And I've done it again, done it again, done it again

Yes, I've seen it
Yes, I've seen it
And if you're feeling great, You know I feel it
Yes, I feel it

And I've done it again, done it again, done it again
And I've done it again, done it again, done it again

And I've done it again, done it again, done it again
And I've done it again, done it again, done it again

Strange, I've seen that face before
Seen him hanging 'round my door
Like a hawk stealing for the prey
Like the night waiting for the day

Strange, he shadows me back home
Footsteps echo on the stones
Rainy nights, on Hausmann Boulevard
Parisian music, drifting from the bars

(Tu cherches quoi, rencontrer la mort,
Tu te prends pour qui, toi aussi tu detestes la vie,)

Dance in bars and restaurants
Home with anyone who wants
Strange he's standing there alone
Staring eyes chill me to the bone

(Dans sa chambre, Joel et sa valise,
un regard sur ses fringues,
Sur les murs, des photos,
Sans regret, sans mélo,
La porte est claquée, Joel est barré.)

Strange
I've seen that face before

Seen him hanging 'round my door.
Like a hawk stealing for the prey

Like the night waiting for the day.
Strange
He shadows me back home

Footsteps echo on the stone.
Rainy nights and hustling boulevards

Parisian music tripping from the bars.
Tu cherches quoi?
Rencontrer la mort?
Tu te prends pour qui
Toi aussi tu detestes la vie.
Dancing by the restaurants

Home with anyone you want.
Strange
He's standing there below

Staring eyes thrill me to the bone.
Dans sa chambre
Joelle et sa valise.
Elle regarde ses fringues
Sur les murs des photos
Sans regret
Sans melo.
La porte est claquee

Joelle est barree.

"Rhythm is both the song's manacle and it's demonic charge. It is the original breath, it is the whisper of unremitting demand. "What do you still want from me?", says the singer. "What do you think you can still draw from my lips?" Exact presence that no fantasy can represent. Purveyor of the oldest secret, alive with the blood that boils again, and is pulsing where the rhythm is torn apart. How your singer's blood is incensed at the depth of sound. Lacerations echo in the mouth's open erotic sky where dance together the lost frenzies of rhythm and an imploring immobility. Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Grace Jones. Jones the Rhythm."

Slave!

Slave to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm
Axe to wood in ancient times
Man machine, production line
The fire burns, with heartbeats strong
Sing out loud, the chain gang song

Never stop the action
Keep it up, keep it up
Never stop the action
Keep it up, keep it up

Slave to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm,
The rhythm... master... master...

Never stop the action, keep it up
Never stop the action
Keep it up, keep it up.

Slave to the rhythm, work to the rhythm,
Dance to the rhythm, live to the rhythm.
Slave to the rhythm,
Dance to the rhythm, live to the rhythm,
Slave to the rhythm, work...to the rhythm,
To the rhythm, work to the rhythm, to the rhythm.

Slave, slave,
To the rhythm, to the rhythm, to the rhythm.

Oh that's weird...

Paul Cooke: "Grace Jones, welcome"
Grace Jones: "Thank you Paul. And if you’re wondering what’s wrong with my voice, I just choked on my saliva. So…"
Paul Cooke: "Now obviously you’re in the Bond movie."

I've been pulled to pieces, I've got an arm over here,
I've got a leg over there, I've got my ass somewhere upside down,
But I'm back, I'm here to tell you I'm back, better than before,
Can't keep a good thing down, uh-uh.

Well I've been kicked around, never thought that I could fall,
Thought that I was standing tall, turned out I was the ball,
And you know what, and I, and I, and I've been kicked around,
Baby after all, I took all the shots you called,
Turned out I was the ball, you kicked you pushed.

And I've been kicked around, and I've been upside down,
Oh I've been bounced around, kicked around,
I'm gonna get you, get you, your very momma will regret you,
I'm going to stomp and drag you to your knees,
Your very papa will forget you, kicked around.

Oh I, Oh I, Oh I've been bounced around,
Let me tell you, I'm here to tell you,
You can get up, you can put all the pieces back together,
Yeah, don't let him stomp on you baby, get up now!
I said you made me feel so small, bouncing me against the wall,
Just like I was the ball, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh I, Oh I, Oh I, Oh I've been kicked around,
Now look at me baby, (trips alone) paved the memories you gave me,
My eyes are open, eyes are open, now I can see,
You're nothing but a bad, bad memory,
I'm all together now, all together now,
I'm the biggest ball you ever did see, I'm gonna roll on you,
I'm gonna fall on you, I'm gonna stomp on you,
I'm gonna punch on you, I'm gonna choke on you,
I'm gonna rip you, drag you to your knees,
Your very papa will regret you!

No need to come begging to me, my heart is deaf to your plea,
The hurt you have planted has grown much in me,
I'm gonna lie to you, get away from me!
Oh I, Oh I, Oh I, Oh I've been kicked around,
And I've been upside down, been kicked around,
Yeah, here I am, I'm back, I'm all together,
Can't keep a good woman down, I'm big and tall,
Listen to me, just listen to me, just look at me,
I'm back, here I am, hear me coming....

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voila le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens

Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
je vois la vie en rose

Il me dit des mots d'amour
des mots de tous le jours
Et ca me fait quelque chose

Il est entre dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause

C'est lui pour moi
Moi pour lui
dans la vie
Il me l'a dit, l'a jure pour la vie

Et des que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi, mon coeur qui bat...

When he takes me in his arms
and whispers love to me
everything's lovely
It's him for me and me for him
all our lives
and it's so real what I feel
this is why

Et des que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi,mon coeur qui bat...
la vie .........

La vie en rose,la vie en rose
ohhhhhhhh.....la vie
La vie en rose,

La vie en rose,la vie en rose
la vie en rose ,la vie en rose
la vie en rose , la vie en rose
la vie en rose, la vie en rose

Je t'aime voir toujours...

't ain't no big thing
To wait for the bell to ring
't ain't no big thing, the toll of the bell

Aggravated, spare for days
I troll down town the redlight place
Jump up, bubble up
What's in store
Love is the drug and I need to score

Showing out, showing out, hit and run
Boy meets girl where the beat goes on
Stiched up tight, can't shake free
Love is the drug got a hook on me
Oh, catch that buzz
Love is the drug I'm thinking of
Oh, can't you see, love is the drug for me

Oooh, oooh

Late at night I parked my car
Staked my place in the singles bar
Face to face, toe to toe
Heart to heart as we hit the floor

Lumbered up, limbo down
The locked embrace, stumble round
I say go, she say yes
Dim the lights, you can guess the rest

Oh, catch the buzz
Love is the drug I'm thinking of
Oh, can't you see
Love is the drug got a hook on me
Oh, catch the buzz
Love is the drug I'm thinking of
Oh, can't you see, love is the drug for me

Oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh
...
Oooh, oooh

Love is, love is, love is the drug

't ain't no big thing
To wait for the bell to ring

Aggravated, spare for days

Showing out, showing out, hit and run

Stiched up tight, can't shake free

They're something to see,
We're nightclubbing,
Bright-white clubbing,
Oh isn't it wild?

Nightclubbing, nightclubbing,
We're walking through town,

Bright white clubbing,
Oh isn't it wild?
